• Design Quality: Learning from the Mistakes of the US Auto Industry

  * * * * *

  Dr. W. Edwards Deming, an American statistician, is a hero overseas for bringing his philosophy on manufacturing quality to the Japanese auto industry. He had pitched his views to American manufacturers prior to heading to Japan, but they chose not to listen, and over time came to regret it. This talk will look at the views of Dr. Deming, current trends in software and web development, and draw from history to learn how the information technology field can avoid the same fate.
